i bet she had a good time. what a great experience for a kid, to get up on stage like that to lift. seems like a good thing to build self-confidence. i know i would've felt proud going into school the next week after competing in a meet. i also think it's great you're doing this with your daughter. i have a niece who seems to be naturally athletic, and do you know my bro-in-law doesn't really do anything to support this? drives me insane
